If you have the choice between starting a job right now or finish your studies, Does finishing school would give you a greater reward in the long run?
By finishing school first, I assume you would have certain advantages:
A degree ( duh ). Might be interesting/mandatory for certain employers
A better network ( ? )
A better education ( ? )
A degree could give you a better job ( seems your classmates dive pretty well anyway...). I can also presume that whatever concept you are being taught, it would be better to learn it from professional teachers than all by yourself, even though we do a whole lot of self-teaching in this job.
Finding a job right now would make you start gaining experience, and some €€€.
I'm totally biased here, because I'm a self taught and I've done alright so far. I also had a bad experience with academical studies in this field ( content way out of date for example ). Anyway, just my 2 cents :)
I'm having a bad experience academically, too, also out of date content, I can feel you. I have some work experience but certainly not in what I'm aiming at (even if it was in the IT industry). I was thinking about changing the university or so.
Anyway your tips were great, thanks!!
